Fotograf Ine Ertvaag
Hi!
Personally, I include a complimentary engagement session in all my wedding packages because I strongly believe it benefits both me as a photographer, and the clients. It's a chance for them to get comfortable with myself, my working methods, and the camera before their actual wedding day (getting all the awkwardness out of the way!), and to receive images from me before the wedding. This may offer extra peace of mind that they did in fact book the right photographer for their needs and wants, and often I see that the engagement photos end up on their wedding invitations - which I think is really nice!
From my point of view, as the photographer - the better I know my clients, the better end result. This shoot in advance lets me observe how they interact as a couple, discover what poses and methods work for just them, and be able to prepare even better for the shoot on their wedding day. The more relaxed we all are in each other's company, the easier to capture authentic, natural shots from their wedding. :)
